I've watched similar scenes myself a few times, always fun! This is a very nice capture, well done.
Lois Bryan replied:
Hey Chris!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!! Oh, it was just so wild!!!!! We saw it happen over and over ... thanks heavens I'd usually already been shooting at one or the other of them and had my settings already clicked right ... they dust up so quickly, if your camera isn't already ready, you'll never get the shot!!!!!

Great capture, love the texture too!
Lois Bryan replied:
Hey sweetie!!!!!! Thank you!!!! I wasn't sure about texturizing this one ... but I thought it held the image of the battling swans together well ... glad you approved!!!

Nice photo. Good use of depth of field.
Lois Bryan replied:
Hey Jeff!!!!! Thank you!!!! Those bull rushes (or whatever they are) were a huge disappointment for me at first, but I think now they work.
Iris Greenwell
beautiful image! Great perspective
Lois Bryan replied:
Thanks so much, Iris ... when the feathers started to fly I was pretty dismayed about the bull rushes in front of me ... but now, I think they worked to the advantage of the image.
